Sitka Men's Jetstream Jacket - Constructed with Gore's WINDSTOPPER® laminate, the Jetstream Jacket is a no brainer for cool wind protection. Soft shell fabric facing allows a smooth and almost seamless finish, and helps to ward off a light drizzle and snow flurries. A guide's best friend, this jacket is a treat for glassing sheep on a wind-blown ridge or stalking into a north wind. The Jetstream's new hood this year adds even more funcitonality to an already proven performer in the field.

I used this jacket as a part of a 3 layer system while hunting eastern Oregon in early November. The jacket performed flawlessly, keeping me warm when glassing windy draws and dry when snow flurries and rain came.

This will be my third season with the Jetstream jacket. I have worn it on cool days in September while chasing bugling bulls all the way through the extended archery hunt in December with additional layers, such as the jetstream vest or Traverse Hoody. I have found this jacket to be durable, lightweight and water resistant. It has held up during (light) rain. I love this jacket SO much that I am tempted to try out the Jetstream lite jacket. One of my favorite things about Sitka Gear is the athletic fit. There is no need wear an arm guard for archery season since this jacket isn't bulky. I test apparel for GoreTex and would rate this with my highest overall rating.
